This paper explores a two-species non-homogeneous reaction-diffusion model for the study of pattern formation with the Brusselator model. We scrutinize the pattern formation with initial conditions and Neumann boundary conditions in a spatially heterogeneous environment. In the whole investigation, we assume the case for random diffusion strategy. The dynamics of model behaviors show that the nature of pattern formation with varying parameters and initial conditions thoroughly. The model also studies in the absence of diffusion terms. The theoretical and numerical observations explain pattern formation using the reaction-diffusion model in both one and two dimensions.

We review some recent work investigating a hierarchy of patterning processes in which a reaction-diffusion model forms the top level. In one such hierarchy, it is assumed that the boundary is differentiated, and it is shown that this can greatly enhance the robustness of the patterns subsequently formed by the reaction-diffusion model. In the second, a spatial heterogeneity in background environment is first set-up by a simple gradient model. The resulting patterns produced by the reaction-diffusion system may be isolated to specific parts of the domain. The application of such hierarchical models to skeletal patterning in the tetrapod limb is considered.
